Looks cool! Would love to try a mac or web version!

Looks good and the dashing is fun! Had trouble platforming on the gears.

Heads up, there was an error with the exe, it prefers being called something like "The Reincarnation.exe" rather than ludum dare exe or whatever. I fixed it myself, but just fyi.

To be honest I had a hard time with just the first few platforms. The jumps rely on super picky apex heights to even make them. I gave up on the one I'm assuming you have to dash to for the first time, I never seem to gain enough height to land. The level design just doesn't seem to match the character's capabilities at all. I even tried jumping on the yellowish beams to see if there was an alternate route. The checkpoint also felt too far back for such high precision platforming.

I enjoyed the graphics especially the pixel art. While there is some clash with the style, the world design is rather nice. It's a shame I didn't get to explore much of it and find out what will happen to the dog. :slight_frown:

I can't reach the platform under the clock, it's quite early in the game.

@shweep thank you for your feedback! I have tweaked the difficulty of the game and fixed the .exe folder problem...

I'm glad you go the exe problem fixed. I love the story setup. And the visuals are beautiful. The mouse controller is a bit twitchy, but workable. I wanted to play with my gamepad but there was no way to turn.

Very difficult to play, but kinda satisfying. Took me about 20 tries to make it past the first big jump.

I got through the gears, but was unable to dash across the crystal area. I enjoyed what I was played! Having the camera turn while I was standing on the gears was disorienting.

This game is amazing... Very fluent i will not coment nothing about the graphics... because they are realy beuty! The only problem is the mouse sensitivity, for I play the i need to reduce the DPI and chage my mouse setings. But Congratulations your game is awesome!

WOW! just wow. So impressed with this game, so much content for a jam, and I was totally not expecting that ending sequence ;). You should be proud.

The story, the idea and the music is good. The controls is not super bad, but they was not the best, and in they were the reason I stop playing the game. Overall this is fine LD game.

Reminds final fantasy as for me! Wich i think is a pretty good comparison as for a jam game)

It's looks amazing! But this game too hard for me). I tried many times but fail. And the transition between a pixel-art cut scene and the 3D-world - very interesting trick! Good luck!

Just beautiful. Control are so hard. The level design is not appropriate for the dash capacity. You put walls to stop the player it's a bad idea. Just decrease the dash power next time. Some time rocks miss collider so you jump on it and you fall...
